'''Lakeside Limbo''' is the first level of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' It is located in the first world, [[Lake Orangatanga]]. This level takes place on a series of boardwalks hanging over a large body of water. As the first level, Lakeside Limbo does not feature any unique obstacles or hazards. [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] can use their [[team up]] ability early in the level to reach above for bonus items. There are a few basic enemies in the level, including [[Sneek]]s, [[Kobble]]s, and a single [[Booty Bird]]. There are a few segments where the Kongs can swim in the lake below. The Kongs can optionally break open an [[Animal Crate]] of [[Ellie|Ellie the Elephant]] during the latter half of the level, and they can ride on her in some later parts of the level.
==Layout==
[[File:Lakeside Limbo GBA Kobbles.png|thumb|left|Lakeside Limbo in the Game Boy Advance version]]
At the beginning of the level, the Kongs start under a small tunnel, which leads to a tunnel supported by large stilts. After the tunnel, there are long sets of boardwalks over the lake with Sneeks, a [[barrel]], and the [[K-O-N-G Letters|letter K]]. The player can then climb up a small ledge to reach the first Kobble and a formation of bananas creating the letter R. The next section has some tightropes, and on the boards below the ropes, there is a [[Koin]] and the letter O.  The player must then go downwards through a straight pathway to some Kobbles in a small alcove with a tightrope. Continuing to the other side reveals a tunnel with a [[Star Barrel]].


About halfway into the level, there is a DK Barrel and a large gap of water that must be swum through to reach another boardwalk. There, the player can find a Kobble and a small gap with the letter N above it. A pathway leading to a ledge is also located nearby. Jumping off this ledge causes the Kongs to land on a crate with Ellie in it. Near Ellie's crate, the player should defeat a Booty Bird to earn the letter G. After climbing over a raised piece of the boards, the Kongs reach a flat surface with a lone Kobble and [[No Animal Sign]]. Afterwards, the player can reach the [[Level Flag]] located nearby the sign.  
'''Lakeside Limbo''' is the first level of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]'', and is located in [[Lake Orangatanga]].

==Enemies==
This level takes place on a series of boardwalks. There are a few [[Sneek]]s and [[Kobble]]s throughout, as well as a [[Booty Bird]], though they shouldn't give the Kongs much trouble. [[Koin]] is out in the open and easy to defeat. The player can ride [[Ellie]] in the later half of the level.

*'''N:''' After the Kongs cross the first water area from the Star Barrel, they find the letter N above a small gap.
*'''G:''' Near the end of the level, the Kongs must defeat a Booty Bird to get the letter G.


===DK Coin===
******************************
Right under the letter O, the Kongs can find the [[Koin]] and a [[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]]. The Kongs must pick up the Steel Barrel and throw it behind Koin on either side, whether it is facing left or right. The Steel Barrel then bounces off either wall and hits Koin from behind, defeating him and thus earning the Kongs the [[DK Coin]].
When you begin the stage, switch to Kiddy. Use your Team Toss to toss Dixie
onto the roof's overhead. You'll find one Red Balloon on each of these roof-
tops. Hop down. Defeat the Sneeks and grab the letter K if you wish. Grab
the Barrel and use it to knock out the other Sneeks. Defeat the Kobble past
the first [[DK Barrel]], then switch back to [[Dixie]]. Toss [[Kiddy]] onto the crack in
the boardwalk, then fall through to enter the game's first Bonus Area.


==Bonus Levels==
BONUS AREA 1: COLLECT 50 STARS
{{multiframe|[[File:Lakeside Limbo Bonus Area 1.png|200px]] [[File:Lakeside Limbo Bonus Area 2.png|200px]]|size=420|The first and second Bonus Levels respectively}}
This first Bonus Area is incredibly simple, even for newcomers. Each of the
Lakeside Limbo has two Bonus Levels, listed by type:
Stars are all in one area, and can all be picked up with just a few jumps.
*'''''Collect 50 Stars!''''': To access the first [[Bonus Level]], Dixie must use a [[team up]] throw for Kiddy to land on a crack in the boardwalk, next to a group of bananas shaped like an "A" (or "R" in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake), which represents the button to use team up. The Kongs can go down the opened gap to enter a [[Bonus Barrel]]. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs must collect fifty [[star (Donkey Kong franchise)|star]]s within twenty seconds by using a horizontal rope in an open area. After the Kongs collect all the stars, the [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong franchise)|Bonus Coin]] appears.
Get the ones on the rope first, however. (To drop from the rope, hold Down +
*'''''Grab 15 Bananas!''''': To reach the second Bonus Barrel, the Kongs must swim under a boardwalk with the letter N. They must continue forward and jump out the water and into the Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs have 30 seconds to collect 15 [[green banana]]s, which individually appear around a horizontal rope. After the Kongs collect every banana, the Bonus Coin appears.
A.) When all the stars are collected the Bonus Coin will appear on the right
ledge. If you fail, however, it is a good sign that you should probably just
give up now and return the game.


==Warp Barrel==

where you'll find Koin. A replenishing Steel Keg will appear to the right of

him. Grab it, and throw it over Koin's head so that it bounces off the wall
behind him and smacks him in the back. Good job. You've just collected your
first DK Coin. Only 64 more to go. Woot.

Break it open to release Ellie the Elephant! Hop on Ellie, and move on. You
will come across a Booty Bird, with a Barrel underneath. Pick up the Barrel
by pressing A and smack Booty Bird with it to uncover the letter G. Grab the
next Barrel to knock out the next few enemies in your way. Eventually, you
will come across the No Ellie Sign. Pass it while riding on Ellie, and she
will turn into a [[Bear Coin]].
 
Once you regain control of your Kongs, head back a bit to the ledge to the
left of the No Animal Sign. Have Kiddy leap and hurl Dixie up/left, and you
should find a [[Blue Balloon]], worth three lives! Now, simply continue toward
the end of the stage where the flag is. And if you aren't in a hurry, throw
Dixie atop the roof past the flag for another Bear Coin and a [[Banana Bunch]].
